Overview

The Water Revolution: From Scarcity to Sustainable SecurityThe global water crisis stands as one of the most pressing and complex challenges of the 21st century: a multidimensional issue that transcends borders, sectors, and generations. Amid growing climate instability, rapid urbanization, and increasing water demand, seawater desalination emerges not merely as a technological alternative, but as a cornerstone of long-term water security and resilience. This book offers a comprehensive, clear, and practice-oriented vision of desalination, connecting the foundations of science, engineering, economics, and sustainability with public policy, governance, and innovation. Through a strategic lens, it explores how technological evolution, digital transformation, and circular economy principles are reshaping the way we produce and value freshwater. Anchored in global and regional perspectives, the work highlights emblematic case studies such as Fernando de Noronha (Brazil), where desalination eliminated rationing and redefined island sustainability; Torrevieja (Spain), a model of large-scale efficiency and integration with renewables; and Sorek (Israel), a global benchmark in innovation, cost optimization, and water reuse integration. Designed for engineers, managers, decision-makers, students, and investors, this book is an indispensable guide to transforming water scarcity into sustainable opportunity, uniting technical rigor, strategic vision, and practical experience to redefine the future of water infrastructure in a changing world.
